Lost Gardens of Heligan

Lanhydrock
This magnificent late Victorian country house offers visitors a glimpse into the two sides of Victorian life; below stairs and above stairs.
Visitors can see what below stairs living was like by exploring the kitchens, nurseries and servants’ quarters and comparing them to what above stairs living was like by seeing the luxurious family areas, spacious bedrooms and beautiful dining rooms.
